Lyrics

(V1)
As she sits down on the front porch swing / she can hear the church bells ring / and the echoes from the next room filling up with family / her emotions running wild / and she does her best to hide them all with a nervous smile / as he looks into himself he sees his image dissapear / from the boy he's always know / to the man standing in the mirror / two lives are gonna end / where a new one will begin
(Chorus)
Their waiting for life / their waiting for life / the one that starts brand new / between husband and wife / their gonna see that all the nerves / are gonna be worth / all the future good times / whoa whoa their waiting for life
(V2)
She sits down on the front porch swing / watching the clouds roll by / with a nine month precious soul / that she's been carrying inside / her patience keeps on fallin / like the leaves the ground keeps callin / from an Autumn sky / with every day he wonders what tomorrows gonna bring / will he finally hold his son / and how everything will change / she smiles her nervous smile / and he assures her / everythings gonna be ok
(Chorus)
And their waiting for life / their waiting for life / no matter when he comes / he'll be right on time / their gonna see that all the hurt / is gonna be worth all the love their gonna find / whoa whoa their waiting for life
(Bridge)
The longer that you live / the quicker it goes by / and the only thing that hasn't changed is the person in their eyes / he only remembers who she is / every now and then / and she tries to hide her feelings as she slowly looses him
(Chorus)
And their waiting for life / their waiting for life / in the eternal gates of heavon / when their both called on high / they can see that all the hurt / was much more than worth / the love and memories their gonna leave behind / whoa whoa their waiting for life / mhmm / their waiting for life
